  1. Anyone remember the ChiPs episode in the early 80's where the kid on the Go-Cart evaded the cops? Flashback, man I'm getting old! I couldn't find it on youtube.
  2. Geese, I would have sold you my Tech 3. I bought it like 7 years ago on ebay used and haven't used it yet. One of these days I'll get around to it. Looking forward to the progress. The Tape deck thing made me laugh. I still miss going to the music store.
  3. Guys from my searching the past few months prices for base Z's have gone up. I've looked at many cars that have been junk for 2500 and up. My advice is hold onto your cars or ask more especially if it's entry level car. Start searching craigslist . There have been tons of WTB ads for Datsun. There have been very few even for sale here on hybridz or any Z forum in my opinion. This thing sold in 2 hours. http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/cto/4897011612.html My buddy picked up a non running rusty 240z for $800. On his way to pic up the car someone offered $1200 but the seller held to his word. It also sold in a few hours.
  4. I know that feeling all to well. I bought a 99 Firebird w/ 166K miles on it for $4200 mostly stock. I had so much fun driving that car. I could only imagine it in my Z. Ended up selling it needing the money for another house. One day....

    got demoted

    Exhale...I think you simply Read it wrong. "Your group promotion given during your last donation has expired. You have now been demoted to a different user group. Thank you for supporting this forum." It says different user group, not lesser...
  6. Good point Tony. I need to hang out more here again. I do miss your logic and intelligence.
  7. I've been looking for a decent Z for awhile now on the lower price point. They seem to be gone. Even eBay has had a few only. I check here regularly too without much luck. A few years ago I could buy a decent (rust wise) car for $400. No longer. I would come up with a minimum price you would take, do a good ad with lots of pics and be descriptive on eBay and see what happens. Of course set your reserve at the minimum price you would take. I bought my last 240z for $1800 not Running with little rust last year and sold it for $2k. Of course I kept some of the goodies it came with.
  8. Hey Woldson. It's been awhile. It's always his fault! It's funny I tell people if you want to see you flaws have kids!
  9. On the black one there some dents in the leather. Also the stitching is coming off just a little. Both are 14" and both have hubs for the Z. $50 on the black and $70 on the simulated wood.
  10. I've got all too. If the others don't work out.
  11. I have two grants. Let me get a few pics tomorrow.
  12. You want a stock steering wheel or after market?
  13. Not a blanket statement by any means, but both my wife and I work with a few in there 20's and we wonder how in the world they survive. There is something missing in today's young adults. The other day my 16 year old daughter says, this older guy painted his house pink in support of her wife who died of breast cancer. He died not long after and the homeowners association painted the house a normal color. She was like how could they! I looked at her and said please don't vote! They let their feelings do their thinking.
  14. I do my best to measure some of his behavior against how I was when I was his age. Some of the stuff I did was over the top in comparison, I was just lucky. I'm very happy he is not doing drugs and drinking. He does not like college, living at home or my rules. He has been given a few options. Go to college, get a job and pay rent, just get out, or join the service. We're pushing college on him and paying for everything minus his gas money and entertainment fund. One of my biggest regrets ever has been video games. Complete time sucking, nonsense! I traded a super rusty 240z that I paid $80 for a $400 game system. Funny my dad used to get on me when I was kid too about wasting quarters, but If you don't have money to play, you don't play.
  15. Yep exactly! He was down at the recruiters office yesterday.
  16. They are fixing it. Estimate came in at $4500. The deal is now he can drive when he shows me his enlistment papers. I'll sign the truck over into his name and he can pay for his own insurance. I had to pay $800 for two stupid tires the insurance won't cover. Actually this is his 3rd offense. The first one I self insured at $2500 out of pocket.
  17. I'm speechless at this point glad my son is ok. Needless to say this is his second offense and I'm a little pissed. First one was all front end damage. 2001 GMC Sierra SLT 103K.
  18. I'll take a set too if you don't want to break it up.
  19. You want stock? I have a ceramic coated, with T4 flange and 60mm waste gate hole. Also have the down pipe and turbo
  20. Seeing Server 500 errors too and freezing when posting.
  21. Looking for a right side 240z tail light. Doesn't need to be nice. Cracked is fine, bad chrome is okay. Let me know price plus shipping to 34786.
  22. https://www.google.com/ Sweet! paste works via IE now!
  23. I don't know why, but to me it looks 180 the wrong direction. With the engine at TDC is rotor pointing at cyl #1 in the distributor cap? Go down load the FSM. You'll have to search for the image but it's in there. http://www.xenons130.com/reference.html
